I was shopping for this bag on Feb 17th and picked the Off white-Maroon-ish color (came with a cool discount). We were mighty impressed with its capabilities. My wife is using it as a daily driver carrying a lot of books with some room to spare.
I like the bag because of the space as well. It’s like a never ending bag coz you can keep stuffing things into it and there will still have some space.
If you put Squarish stuff, it doesn’t sag. But if you just put thin but heavy things, the bag will sag at the bottom. However, with the stuff I have shown in the video, the bag doesn’t sag at the bottom and it holds it shape. I’ve been using it for the past 2 years and I place my bag in a carpeted floor. So far the bottom part is still good. I have even put it in the washing machine to wash it and it came back good as new. The material is really durable.
Hi, I have the Macbook Air 13 inch M2 model. I'm not sure which 14 inch model macbook pro is yours, but I did check out the size of the latest 14 inch model of Macbook Pro. Based on the size, I am pretty sure it will fit into the laptop pocket of the tote bag because my 13 inch macbook air with case still had some room on the sides when I put it into the pocket. Hope this answer helps.
I think it’s a matter of preference. This color in particular can be suitable for men. In fact, the ad in Bellroy showed a man carrying the bag. I have seen men carrying similar tote and to me it looked great on them. While that being said, I know most men may think a tote meant for women. Therefore they may prefer backpack instead. You can check out other range in bellroy that provide similar space and functions.
@@HitchandHitched thank you! I’m actually looking for a tote bag as I’ve been carrying an old canvas tote everywhere for ages now and need something more presentable. Surprised to see branded totes being sold for outrageous prices everywhere and this one seems to be the most reasonably priced.
Hey! I know this video is a year ago but i came across this video and i was wondering if this is a good bag for school? I might get it since it looks pretty big and nice pockets for a bag to travel to school.
This is a perfect bag for school because it does accommodate a lot of things. Text books, files, laptop up to 13inch. You can even fit your shoes in one of the compartments. It’s also very sturdy bag where it doesn’t get torn easily
The 14" laptop will not fit into the laptop pocket. Alternatively, you can put it in the main compartment, but it may compromise the water bottle area.
Hi, I’m 5ft 3 inches and you can see how the bag looks like on my shoulder in this blog post hitchandhitched.com/bellroy-tokyo-tote-best-organized-work-bag-review/
I’m 5ft 3 inch and the bag goes up to my thigh actually. In terms of proportion, the bag does look big on me. I have a photo on how it looks for my frame, You can check out my blog at hitchandhitched.com/bellroy-tokyo-tote-best-organized-work-bag-review/
I have spilled water in this bag and unfortunately, the water did seep through. The second edition of the tote did mention that the fabric is waterproof though.
It is so refreshing seeing a women do a bag review. I was so excited to see someone put a normal size wallet in a bag. Great review!
Thank you. Haha... I know what you mean and I totally agree with you 😆
I LOVED Mine as soon as I laid eyes on it when my husband surprised me with this . I really recommend it's cute and big.
I totally agree!

Your daughter is so adorable!
Thank you 😊
Looks so practical!
Yes it is. Loving it and I don’t feel restricted at all. I can just simply chuck everything in and carry it everywhere
I was thinking to buy this same model, but decided not to after watching your video which was very helpful to make decision! Thanks heaps!
Great!!! That’s why I love review videos from others because it helps me to avoid purchases that I will regret later.
Can this bag be used by men as well 🤔. Thanks
Actually, the bag is marketed for unisex 😄. The main models used for this bag ads were men. So, you can definitely try it
Thank you for your review. I was hesitate for 12L and 15L. This helps me a lot :)
Glad I could help!
Also me.. thank you for help me to choose my Tote size 🤗 also your daughter very cute! ❤
Great video thanks for the help.
You are welcome 💕
How does this material do with dog hair/lint?
I’m not sure actually but I’ve been using it quite a while on daily basis and never had problem with lint.
Does the bottom sag when loaded with weight? And does bottom corners wear excessively? Thank you

Wow i just looking for my new mac.
This is definitely a great bag for Mac 13inch.
Is this a 12L tote bag or 15L tote bag?
This is the 12L bag. The 15l tote bag can fit laptop up to 16" in size. This one will only fit about 12" max.
Does it fit the 14 inch macbook pro? I couldn't find any review mentioned about it.

@@HitchandHitched thanks a lot for the effort.
Much easier to consider the bag.

Go to Tokyo- every man going to / from work has a tote and looks awesome. Hope you purchased!

Hi can a 14” laptop fit here?
The 14" laptop will not fit into the laptop pocket. Alternatively, you can put it in the main compartment, but it may compromise the water bottle area.
how many liter?
This is the 15 liter, the big one.
Is it water repellant? I am planning to use this as a family outdoor bag due to the amount of pockets it has.
Unfortunately, it’s not. But there’s new outdoor bag by Bellroy. Do check it out.
I know this video is a year old but I just came across this video, Can you please show us what the bag looks like on your shoulders from a distance.
Hi, I’m 5ft 3 inches and you can see how the bag looks like on my shoulder in this blog post

Hye there. How long bellroy send its notification once you made the payment? Ive made the payment but did not receive any confirmation via email.
Hi, I think it was immediate. Did you try checking your junk mail?
@@HitchandHitched yes i also checked in the junk but no email yet. Ive sent them an email, waiting for their reply. Thank you so much dear.
@@azlindasaadon2722 hopefully, you will be able to get to your order soon
Hi! Is this the 15L capacity bag?
Yes, it is the 15l bag
Hey! Is that the 12l compact or the 15l model?
Hi, this is the larger model which is the 15l.
Hi this is the larger model which is the 15l
I notice that the straps don’t go around the bag like the rains tote does, will it rip if too heavy.
Nope, it doesn't and I have carried pretty heavy stuff. It is very very strong.
Hi do you think this will fit an 18oz hydro flask?
The yellow bottle I have in this bag is 30oz. I'm pretty sure the 18oz will fit perfectly.
Hi there, does it look big in proportion to your body?
I’m 5ft 3 inch and the bag goes up to my thigh actually. In terms of proportion, the bag does look big on me. I have a photo on how it looks for my frame, You can check out my blog at hitchandhitched.com/bellroy-tokyo-tote-best-organized-work-bag-review/
@@HitchandHitched thank you for the reply :) but it seems like the webpage doesn't know images?
@@congma100 oh, I have uploaded in the lazy mode. The image will appear if you put in ‘reading mode’ on your phone or website.
@@HitchandHitched thank you I see it now :) I think bellroy also sells a compact version which is good for shorter people
Will a 15inch laptop fit in the main compartment?
I don’t have a 15inch laptop but I think it will fit. However, you might not be able to use the big side pockets for the bottles or shoes.
Is it water proof?
I have spilled water in this bag and unfortunately, the water did seep through. The second edition of the tote did mention that the fabric is waterproof though.
Jesus talk about the kitchen sink!
Not the best review I've ever seen but looks like a decent tote bag.
Is this the 12 or the 15? Sorry if you've mentioned it
Hi, this one is the bigger tote which is the 15L size.
